Why Eva Longoria Loves Lingerie

FREE DAILY FITNESS TIP

Playing the role of a sultry siren on Desperate Housewives ensures that Eva Longoria is always clad is tight, revealing outfits that oftentimes consist of little more than a thin swatch of silk. But if you exercised as hard as she does, you wouldn’t mind showing your body off to the world either! The Latin fireball works out with a personal trainer who takes her through a series of strength-training exercises that tone every muscle, including torso twists and one-legged squats. To work her entire body all at once, the former aerobics instructor performs these moves while standing on a balance tool (at home, try the Bosu ball). Doing the exercises while standing on an unstable surface, instead of the floor, forces her to contract and stabilize her core muscles. In order to firm up her booty, the petite actress also adds leg presses and lunges to her routine. Judging by what we’ve seen of her bikini and bra-and-panty photo shoots, the moves sure are working! To fuel her body with energy after a sweaty session, the size zero stunner fills up on high-protein egg whites, which her mom cooked for her when she was little. Raised on a Texas ranch, the former soap-opera star has long been a fan of healthy foods like grilled tacos, tortilla soup and fresh fruit. She also enjoys whole grains and salads, that is, when she’s not craving pizza or chocolate! Standing at just five foot two, the actress is living proof that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes. She shows women the world over that exercise, healthy eating and confidence – not a certain body type – are the key ingredients to looking good while wearing next to nothing, on or off camera. So what are you waiting for? Slip into your workout clothes so you feel just as sexy slipping out of them, and then engage in some calorie-crushing sexercise!
